I think it was 854 damage orginally. See your first link, look what it says for damage in the actual description of the spell =)
Well I'm confused about this. First of all, I didn't play a wizard on live so I have zero memories about this. The only informations I have, I got them from old sites / boards.

Now, I saw that "854 damage" entry in the spell description. But, 854 is exactly how much damage Supernova (level 49 PBAE) does. Could it be a copy / paste mistake? Note that the "Actuals Effects" entry is correct (1260 dmg)...

The thing is I don't see any other site saying Winds of Gelid ever did 854 damage. And, let's suppose Winds of Gelid ever was 854 dmg / 875 mana, then it would make it the exact same thing as Supernova (http://www.angelfire.com/or2/Wizards/myztic.html). That would be surprising.

I am also confused by another post you made on the subject (http://www.project1999.org/forums/sh...ad.php?t=38129) saying the spell always did 1260 dmg...

Between kunark release and velious release this spell was messed with a few times.
I've never seen anything about this spell in the changelogs. But I'm not sure spell changes are ever listed there.
